Walter Doekes commented on ASTERISK-22278:
------------------------------------------

Well. Asterisk doesn't make up those errors.

- are you sure you were running asterisk as root? check "ps faxu" output.

- are you running chrooted? in that case the directory may not exist where you expect it to be.

- did you check if the file was writable when asterisk was still running? (perhaps you have init scripts that mangle path permission / layout. all directories leading up to the file must have o+x permissions)

- don't symlink the /var/spool/asterisk/monitor directory. just configure that, or better yet, /tmp as the monitor dir and check what happens

- try this for more info:
